East Wind Cannabis’ Critical Mass: Mellow in the Membrane

Critical Mass CO2 by East Wind Cannabis

Every once in a while I marvel at the universe’s timing. While getting ready for the October DOPE Cup, I reminisced about all the different growers, producers and stores I’ve been blessed to experience. So when last year’s DOPE winner for CBD Concentrate came across my desk for review that very day, I was eager for a reunion!

We lasted visited Gino, owner of East Wind Cannabis, at the start of summer. He told us about his award-winning hit, Critical Mass, a potent, indica-dominant cross of Afghani and Skunk #1. This strain produces a high CBD percentage, along with an equally sedating THC component; the combination of the two has long been sought after for its superb pain and stress relief.

Their in-house-produced Critical Mass CO2 extract is one of the clearest samples I’ve ever seen, with heavy, cherry-like citrus notes. The flavor is intense and will leave your taste buds wanting more of that syrupy cherry infusion. Effects were mellow; the balance of THC and CBD makes for a relaxed state of mind and mildly euphoric body high. If you’re searching for a potent yet mellow pain relief, I’d highly recommend you get Critical!
